simple php include

ok i have http://giusepperossi.net its working and its ok but i want to make it so my menu is read from a php include file ive done this a number of times although my menu has never used css so im not sure if thats the problem anyway
i basically want my menu in a file called menu.inc, anyone know how i can do this? as what i normally use doesnt work

Basically just put in the code

include 'menu.inc.php';

If you have already called the css file in the main page then you dont have to worry about the css.

 

ok on the left is how it should look on the right is how it looks when i put the include php part

 

What does the file you are including look like? Have you tried opening this in a browser window on its own?

 

<div class="buttonscontainer">
<div class="buttons">
<a href="http://www.giusepperossi.net/index.php">Home</a>
<a href="http://www.giusepperossi.net/Stats.php">Stats</a>
<a href="http://www.giusepperossi.net/history.php">History</a>
<a href="http://www.giusepperossi.net/profile.php">Profile</a>
</div>
</div>

thats whats included in the .inc file, it should be fine as its exactly the same as whats on the left hand side

 

does this open ok in the browser?

Is the file you include created in the same editor? I think the file may be corrupted - try creating a new file and cut+pasting the menu from your main page source code.

 

i cba anymorei ant really see me adding that many pages its only a little fan site so ill just add the menu as it is.
